Effect of head pitch and roll orientations on magnetically induced vertigo (2015)
Journal Article
Mian, O. S., GLOVER, P., Li, Y., Antunes, A., & Day, B. L. (2016). Effect of head pitch and roll orientations on magnetically induced vertigo. Journal of Physiology, 594(4), 1051-1067. https://doi.org/10.1113/JP271513

High strength static magnetic fields are known to induce vertigo, believed to be via stimulation of the vestibular system. The leading hypothesis (Lorentz forces) predicts that the induced vertigo should depend on the orientation of the magnetic fiel...

Colon wall motility: comparison of novel quantitative semi-automatic measurements using cine MRI. Neurogastroenterology and Motility, 28(3), 327-335. https://doi.org/10.1111/nmo.12727

Background

Recently, cine magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) has shown promise for visualizing movement of the colonic wall, although assessment of data has been subjective and observer dependent. This study aimed to develop an objective and semi-au... Read More about Colon wall motility: comparison of novel quantitative semi-automatic measurements using cine MRI.

Abnormal visuomotor processing in schizophrenia. NeuroImage: Clinical, 12, 869-878. https://doi.org/10.1016/j.nicl.2015.08.005

Subtle disturbances of visual and motor function are known features of schizophrenia and can greatly impact quality of life; however, few studies investigate these abnormalities using simple visuomotor stimuli. In healthy people, electrophysiological... Read More about Abnormal visuomotor processing in schizophrenia.

Vertex Stimulation as a Control Site for Transcranial Magnetic Stimulation: A Concurrent TMS/fMRI Study (2015)
Journal Article
Jung, J., Bungert, A., Bowtell, R., & Jackson, S. R. (2016). Vertex Stimulation as a Control Site for Transcranial Magnetic Stimulation: A Concurrent TMS/fMRI Study. Brain Stimulation, 9(1), 58-64. https://doi.org/10.1016/j.brs.2015.09.008

Background
A common control condition for transcranial magnetic stimulation (TMS) studies is to apply stimulation at the vertex. An assumption of vertex stimulation is that it has relatively little influence over on-going brain processes involved in...

BACKGROUND: Wernicke’s concept of ‘sejunction’ or aberrant associations among specialized brain regions is one of the earliest hypotheses attempting to explain the myriad of symptoms in psychotic disorders. Unbiased data mining of all possible brain-... Read More about Voxel-based, brain-wide association study of aberrant functional connectivity in schizophrenia implicates thalamocortical circuitry.
